603

That was my second beta number last Monday. They said it was a great number. I get my first ultrasound on the 24th then a week later, on the 31st, we go to the obgyn. I'm kind of sad to be leaving the fertility clinic because everybody there has been so great. On the other hand, moving to the obgyn is kind of like graduating! I could have a normal pregnancy like the rest of the fertiles out there!
I haven't really had many pregnancy symptoms except for the fact that when I am hungry, I'm starving! I guess I'm only 5 weeks so it's not like I'll be having huge symptoms yet.
The progesterone shots are killing me. Both of my hips have knots and bruises all over them. Obviously, I am not planning on swimming any time soon. They also itch sometimes and hurt so bad that I can't lay on my sides. They said that at my next appointment on the 24th, they will start to wean me off the progesterone, so I can't wait for that. They are by far the most painful of the shots I've done to this point. I just keep telling myself it is all worth it.
